GRoG - the Gridfinity openGrid Stand

I'm a big fan of both the Gridfinity and openGrid systems, and this design brings them together in a practical way - letting you keep hanging tools organized and within easy reach on a Gridfinity base.

 

I originally designed this as a companion to my A1 Printer Gridfinity Attachment System, but it works with any Gridfinity-compatible baseplate.

 

The included 3MF contains everything needed for assembly:

• The Gridfinity stand base model
• The upright openGrid panel
• The required Multiconnect components

Print, assemble, mount your tool holders, and you're ready to go. If you want a wider setup, you can use two of these stands side-by-side as shown in one of the model pictures.

 

Update March 8, 2026

I've added a print profile to allow the use of openGrid Heavy, by KYZDesign. The 3MF file includes the modified GRoG stand, a heavy openGrid panel, and the needed Multiconnect components. 

 

Assembly

• Print all included parts.
• Install the Multiconnect Snaps into the bottom row of the openGrid panel.
• The two outer snaps should face the long “front” side of the stand.
• The center snap should face the shorter “back” side.
• Slide the openGrid panel into the stand body.
• Secure it with two Multiconnects at the front and one at the back.
• Add your favorite openGrid-compatible tool mounts.

Optional but recommended:
Consider installing standard 6 mm × 2 mm Gridfinity magnets in the base of the stand, with matching magnets in your baseplate. I use these beside my A1 printers, and the added stability helps prevent accidental tip-overs when grabbing tools.
